Description

These lettuce wraps are super easy to make and taste great too!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE ASSEMBLY:
  • 1 whole Bell Pepper
  • ½ whole Red Onion
  • 1 whole Carrot
  • ¼ heads Red Cabbage
  • 1 head Napa Cabbage
  • 1 bunch Mint Leaves (about A Handful)
  • ¼ bunches Cilantro
  • 1 whole Mango
  • 1 pound Shrimp
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • 2 heads Butter Lettuce
  • _____
  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • ¼ bunches Cilantro
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 piece Small Ginger (2 Inches Long)
  • ½ cups Olive Oil
  • ½ cups Soy Sauce
  • 1 whole Lime Juice
  • ⅓ cups Brown Sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • ½ Tablespoons Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

Preparation

Wash and dry all vegetables and herbs. Dice the bell pepper and onion into small cubes. Julienne the carrot. Chop up the red cabbage, napa cabbage, and mint. Cut off the stems of the cilantro and discard. Chop up the cilantro. Peel and cut the mango into small cubes.

Place bell pepper, carrot, both cabbages, cilantro, onion, mint, and mango into a large bowl and mix well.

For the dressing, blend the rest of the cilantro (without the bottom stems), garlic, ginger (make sure it’s peeled), olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a food processor. The consistency should be smooth.

De-vein and remove shells from shrimp (you can keep the tails on). Skewer the shrimp and rub olive oil, salt, and pepper on them. Grill for about 1 minute – 30 seconds on one side and 30 seconds on the other. Be sure to soak skewers in water to prevent burning if you use wooden skewers. Shrimp should be nice and pink when it’s done. If overcooked, they’ll become rubbery.

Remove the shrimp from the skewers and remove tails. Set aside to cool. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

To one leaf of butter lettuce, add a handful of the “salad”, a couple pieces of shrimp, and a drizzle of the dressing.

Enjoy!

Yum! We need your help before we post this:
– Would you specify/clarify the amount of cilantro used in each section – dressing and salad – by adding an additional cilantro line into the dressing section and tweaking the amount in the salad (if necessary)?
– Would you add the amount of salt, pepper and oil that you use on the shrimp?
– And would you specify the size of the piece of ginger (1-inch, 2-inch, etc) in the ingredients section?

When done, click ‘make recipe visible’ and ‘save’ and we’ll get this posted.
Thanks,
